			I'm with Rick.  I've had to polish marks like these out of blades before.  They are usually grind marks and are harder to get out.  They aggravate the snot out of me.

			Yes, I agree with Rick and Jose, power tool marks.

			Hi Jeff, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
			I also think some form of power tool, using either human power or other means. These are typical "chatter" marks from a coarse grinder. In my experience with HuSa dha these grinding marks are common, although not usually as deep as your examples.. Last edited by Ian; 12th March 2023 at 02:50 PM.  |
